[GRASS-dev] v.buffer missing distance argument in GUI

I just tried v.buffer in GRASS 6.4 (develbranch) and 7 (trunk). The vitally important "distance=" argument is missing from the GUI.

I can see it 'optional' tab.

hm, quite hidden, changed in r35405 (devbr6). I will backport to trunk
and relbr64 later.

BTW, should be devbr6 renamed to 6.5? 6.4.x is used for relbr64.

So well hidden on my Mac that it's completely invisible.

Looking at
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/branches/
- develbranch_6
- ...
- releasebranch_6_4

I think it looks ok? I don't find it confusing as it is...
Maybe I don't get the point since I am traveling :slight_smile:

Ah, you mean include/version[.in]? It could be done but
then all the web stuff/cronjobs needs to be updated which
is rather painful.

I know, but on the other hand, it should be done;-) BTW, Hamish already started.

mhh, maybe things should be sync'ed a bit... perhaps I overlooked
the related email(s).

ML:

MN:

if it breaks all the cron jobs we can switch develbranch_6's VERSION back
to 6.4.svn for a while at little cost, and bump it it 6.5 when the time is
better. shrug, no rush there as no new major development should be
happening in 6.5.svn and '6.4.svn' != '6.4.0.svn'.

I guess cron jobs for 6.4 man pages -> website etc should now be updated to
use releasebranch_6_4 too...

Well, current break in a sense that people download 6.4.trunk and 6.5 is
inside. But maybe nobody cares.
Indeed, all new development in 7 and stabilization in 6.

Once back from traveling I can check that. This would dis-insentivate also the
introduction of super new features in GRASS 6 as harder to find :slight_smile:
